The objective of an optimization algorithm is relatively modest: we're not looking for a solution to the system (3) , or even a local minimum, but for a point satisfying the necessary first-order conditions.

The computer program solving an optimization problem is made up of two logically distinct blocks (headed by a B0 pilot block):

B1 model simulation (enthalpy calculation
